the pain of time passing
of feeling that it is passed
is unbearable
we feel this time but cannot see it
'signs of change'
have nothing to do with time itself
and everything to do with vain attempts
to fix time to a physicality
a body, a face, a city
to possess it
we will feel them all change,
think we see time's traces,
try to grasp its cruelty,
and why we will never see again as we did
but only feel something is no longer
look at your face
time is not there, engraved
time is beating in your chest
floating about your mind
bleeding from your skin
and one day it will be pulsing through your inert body
